Real Repentance - Acts 14: 22
Real and true biblical repentance
means a full turning around
from living in sinful disobedience
so you’re echoing the gospel sound
When you’ve repented of one sin
picture turning from sins of all
for a true heart burns to be holy
hating sin following the inward call
The experience of living in known sin
not wishing repentance of life
is to repent not of any fault
just to expect the judgement knife
So make sure you know how to
repent of your every known sin
cling to Jesus for forgiveness
fight your sinful nature so to win
(‘It is through many persecutions that we must enter the kingdom of God’ Acts 14:22.’
‘ He that repents of one sin truly repents of all sins and he that lives in any one known sin without repentance actually repents of no sin at all’ - A.W. Pink)
